This is a patch for coalescing access to res_counter at charging by percpu caching. At charge, memcg charges 64pages and remember it in percpu cache. Because it's cache, drain/flush if necessary. This version uses public percpu area. 2 benefits for using public percpu area. 1. Sum of stocked charge in the system is limited to # of cpus not to the number of memcg. This shows better synchonization. 2. drain code for flush/cpuhotplug is very easy (and quick) The most important point of this patch is that we never touch res_counter in fast path. The res_counter is system-wide shared counter which is modified very frequently. We shouldn't touch it as far as we can for avoiding false sharing. On x86-64 8cpu server, I tested overheads of memcg at page fault by running a program which does map/fault/unmap in a loop. Running a task per a cpu by taskset and see sum of the number of page faults in 60secs. [without memcg config] 40156968 page-faults # 0.085 M/sec ( +- 0.046% ) 27.67 cache-miss/faults [root cgroup] 36659599 page-faults # 0.077 M/sec ( +- 0.247% ) 31.58 cache miss/faults [in a child cgroup] 18444157 page-faults # 0.039 M/sec ( +- 0.133% ) 69.96 cache miss/faults [ + coalescing uncharge patch] 27133719 page-faults # 0.057 M/sec ( +- 0.155% ) 47.16 cache miss/faults [ + coalescing uncharge patch + this patch ] 34224709 page-faults # 0.072 M/sec ( +- 0.173% ) 34.69 cache miss/faults Changelog (since Oct/2): - updated comments - replaced get_cpu_var() with __get_cpu_var() if possible. - removed mutex for system-wide drain. adds a counter instead of it. - removed CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU Changelog (old): - rebased onto the latest mmotm - moved charge size check before __GFP_WAIT check for avoiding unnecesary - added asynchronous flush routine. - fixed bugs pointed out by Nishimura-san.
